It would be better to instead say &amp;quot;Exponentially bound in required training data size&amp;quot; I say this because having a solid model of these terms is required when making &amp;quot;intuitive conjecture&amp;quot; about what is and isn&amp;#x27;t feasibly possible. Driving is NP-Hard? It would hint that humans have brains capable of computation more powerful than a turing machine. Which... suffice it to say we probably don&amp;#x27;t. I&amp;#x27;m not aware of any proven algorithms that humans can compute which computers cannot. In images free of distortion and noise, computers were…&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://hackerpaper.kaipfister.de/p/1706.06969/"&gt;Paper and discussion history&lt;/a&gt;.

Not defending those who say that LIDAR isn&amp;#x27;t useful/important in self-driving cars, but this assertion is only marginally true today and won&amp;#x27;t be true at all for much longer.
